Name: Spartina patens - Fimbristylis (caroliniana, castanea) - (Panicum virgatum) Marsh Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This non-tidal maritime grassland occurs in seasonally and periodically flooded to saturated interdune swales on barrier islands and the Ingleside barrier-strandplain in the Coastal Bend of Texas. It may also occur in Louisiana and Tamaulipas, Mexico. Dominant herbs can include <i>Spartina patens, Panicum virgatum, Fimbristylis caroliniana, Fimbristylis castanea</i>, and <i>Hydrocotyle bonariensis</i>. Other species include <i>Paspalum monostachyum, Andropogon glomeratus, Andropogon virginicus, Centella erecta, Rhynchospora colorata, Eragrostis</i> sp., <i>Juncus</i> sp., <i>Phyla nodiflora, Pluchea foetida, Rhynchospora</i> spp., and <i>Samolus ebracteatus</i>.
